Global Missions

Ben and Sarah Robertson

Ben, Sarah, & Phoebe Robertson are missionaries to the Czech Republic through Josiah Venture where they are partnering with God’s movement among the youth of Central and Eastern Europe that finds its home in the local church and transforms society. Ben was on staff at Valleybrook until recently, when Valleybrook had the joy and privilege of sending and commissioning the Robertsons to full time missionary ministry.

Ted and Nita Bukowski

Ted and Nita Bukowski, after years of ministry experience, have felt God’s call to take the gospel message to Albania. With a population of 3 million, the primary religion is Islam with only 1/2 of 1% Evangelical Christians.

Nita's own journey of healing from abuse has given her a heart for the wounded. Her mission is to help the women of Albania to understand and experience who they are through God's eyes.

Ted has a passion for the downtrodden. His desire is for the Albanian people to come into an understanding of God's incredible love for them. Ted has been actively involved in prison and street ministry to reach unbelievers.

The need for the hope of the Gospel is great. Ted and Nita are inviting you to partner with them by investing your prayers, and your finances to reach the beautiful and yet broken people of Albania.

Joanna Peterson

Joanna Peterson is a missionary to the Karen People in Thailand and the Karen refugees in Minnesota. She works to bring the gospel to the Karen people through starting and strengthening churches for the Karen people. Joanna is a missionary through Converge Worldwide.

Teamwork Africa

Mark and Peggy Halvorsen are missionaries in Liberia for Teamwork Africa. Teamwork Africa's partnership with native Liberian church plants has seen dramatic results. From 2011 to 2014, 66 clean water wells have been installed and 166 wells repaired. Each providing safe water to villages that desperately needed it. In addition, orphans and children at risk are being cared for through our Starfish Kids sponsorship program, pastors are being provided resources to care for their villages, birth kits have been provided to enable a safer birthing experience for village women. We're also continuing to raise support to equip local pastors to more effectively reach their villages. Through this partnership between individuals and churches in American with local village churches in Africa, eternity is being rewritten in the interior villages of Liberia.
